WHICH YEARS ARE CONSIDERED BEST AS A USED MODEL??? V70-XC70

I was reading the recent issue of Consumer's Reports and the give the model years 1999 and 2000 the best ratings and best buy for the XC70 series. Any input from those of you out there that drive them every day? I'm looking to get one for my wife and the family vacation car. Also, I know they are turbo charged. Is it was considered a light turbo and when does the turbo kick in?
In normal driving, does it not engage and only kick in when the accelerator is punched?

Thanks for your input and advice.......
